UnKwicks Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) Hello I did a migration to a new usb drive last night. So I did a flash backup and wrote it to my new usb drive with the creator tool. All went fine and my server boots up well. When I checked the flash drive file structure on my server I noticed that every file has a copy with ._ als prefix like „._go“. So I went to delete all these files because I used macOS and I thought mac created the copies. After deleting all copeies recursively with find my server complained the usb drive is corrupt. A reboot works fine but after some time the message appears again. I guess it was a bad idea just to delete the files? Dumb me I did not another backup before deleting but I added a new cache pool to my config. Can I fix the drive somehow without flashing again the old backup? If not, what happens with my new cache pool I added after the last flash backup? Could I use the old flash backup and reconfigure the cache pool? How do I get rid of the ._ files after that?

Kilrah Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Most likely unrelated to deleting the files. Quote Link to comment
UnKwicks Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 I flashed a new boot drive now with the old backup and recofigured my changes. Server is running fine so far, but it did yesterday as well. I did not delete the ._ files yet. When the drive is working now, maybe someone has an advice how to get rid of all these ._ files. But lets make sure the server runs fine for 24 hours Quote Link to comment
